Anthea became very emotional right at this moment.
The mixed feelings in her heart were so complicated that she was excited and at the same time at a loss for what to do.
It was like a ray of light shedding into a world that had been gloomy for a long time.
For six full years, Anthea had to lead her life with the condemning of her own conscience every day, and she had suffered a lot. In the past, she often woke up with a start at midnight after she was harassed by the nightmare of her grandfather dying in a pool of blood... Now, all these had gone.
Mr. Wadman looked at Anthea and smiled kindly. "After Adam called me this time, I deliberately chose to come back here and tell you all this. I thought that if Old Hsu's soul is in heaven now, he would wish that his granddaughter will finally be happy with the man she loved!"
Anthea replied seriously, "Mr. Wadman, thank you for doing this to me!"
Mr. Wadman waved his hand with a smile, indicating that he was glad to do so.
After his mission was completed successfully, Mr. Wadman felt at ease. Adam personally drove him back to his home in the downtown area. Anthea received a phone call from the hospital instructing her to go back due to a new arrangement of operation.
After Anthea came out of the operating room, the sun was already setting.
She took off his hat and mask, and moved her stiff neck.
Mila ran over to her with a smile on her face. "Director Lee, Mr. Chin has been waiting for you!"
Anthea halted her steps and nodded. "Well... I know!"
She went back to the office to change her clothes. After handing over the work to her colleague, she walked out of the hospital building.
The sun was setting, and this was the most beautiful time of the day.
Adam's tall and strong figure was beside the green military jeep. He stood there with his hands behind his back. His handsome face was covered with a layer of rosy sunshine. From a distance, only an outline of him could be seen by Anthea.
It was the outline of the man she loved so deeply.
Only then did Anthea realize that after Adam sent her back to the hospital, he had been waiting for her.
She folded her hands in front of her body and walked towards him step by step.
Adam said, "Anthea, I'll take you home."
Take you home...
When she heard these words, her heart was sentimentally touched.
Anthea's eyelashes drooped, and there was an air of hidden worry in her eyes. "I want to tell you something!"
"Go ahead." Adam's dark eyes were fixed on her.
Anthea continued, "You already know that I had deliberately deceived you that I had an abortion. In fact, the abortion was caused by ectopic pregnancy. There is one other thing that you don't know about!"
"Hum?" Adam waited for her to say.
Anthea licked her lips and continued, "When I was sent to the hospital due to ectopic pregnancy at that time, I was already bleeding very seriously. Finally, one side of my ovarian ducts was removed. It was very harmful to my body!
"And the doctor told me that I may not be able to become a mother for the rest of my life. If you don't mind, we..."
Anthea originally wanted to say that if Adam didn't mind, then the two of them could be together again.
But before she could finish her words, Adam suddenly hugged her.
With his actions he told her he wanted to be with her.
It was silent inside the jeep when it drove out of the hospital.
None of them spoke on the way, but their hands were tightly held together. The gaps between their fingers were already wet, yet both of them didn't want to loosen their hands.
When they met a red light on the road, Anthea said, "I want to go back to my dormitory first!"
After Adam parked the jeep near the dormitory building, Anthea got off the jeep and went into the building.
She didn't come out after Adam waited for a long time.
Adam gradually lost his composure and started to feel uncertain.
He thought that Anthea might have suddenly changed her mind and was unwilling to be together with him now. When he was about to jump out of the jeep to look for her, he saw her walking out of the dormitory building. He finally felt relieved.
He caught sight of a little Labrador retriever in her arms. He realized that she was going upstairs to fetch the dog.
Adam recalled what she had said before.
In the future, she would live with him, and their dog.
Although six years had passed since then, what she said had finally become reality!
